Indian Non-Fiction

A list of books on India, almost all of which are by Indian writers; most of them are about history in one way or other but they also involve politics, culture, and religion. (Doesn’t include writing in Indian languages because most of my non-English reading has been limited to fiction). I’ve also added links to online editions for ones I found.

History

Pre-, Postcolonial India (+ other assorted history)

Land of Seven Rivers by Sanjeev Sanyal - looks at Indian history through its geography; great if you want an introduction. it’s a small book but has very interesting insights; definitely would recommend. Also check his Ocean of Churn, which looks at Indian history in terms of the Indian Ocean

The Lost River: On the Trail of the Sarasvati by Michel Danino - looks into the research and evidence on the existence of the Sarasvati river and makes a case for its existence

Hooghly: The Global History of a River by Robert Ivermee - about Hooghly as a centre of a trans-Asiatic and trans-oceanic commercial network

Indians: A Brief History of a Civilization by Namit Arora - what it says, it’s new and was well-received; it paints a holistic picture to start you off

Modern South India by Rajmohan Gandhi - this one’s new, and I’ve only barely read it. It’s the history of south India from the coming of the Portuguese to modern times and it’s really important because we don’t study about this or even talk about this in mainstream conversations

India Moving by Chinmay Tumbe - on migration within India and how migrants and migrations has shaped history, politics, and policy

The Courtesan, the Mahatma, and the Italian Brahmin by Manu Pillai - a selection of stories (real ones) from Indian history; very engagingly written and very, very interesting stories. Also check other works by Pillai - The Ivory Throne and Rebel Sultans. He also writes a regular column for the Mint

Panipat by Vishwas Patil - (a translation from Marathi) a history of the Battle at Panipat in 1761, which basically created a vacuum for the East India Company to step in and grab power; really expansive and highly detailed

Rama and Ayodhya by Meenakshi Jain - on the Ramayana and its cultural spread across Indian since the ancient times; also about the Ayodhya movement

Decolonizing the Hindu Mind by Koenraad Elst - lays down the ideological and intellectual development of the broad umbrella Hindu revivalist movement; really good starting point to understand the rise and development of a significant chunk of Indian politics in post-independence years; really straightforward work, very clear in its objectives

1962: the War that Wasn’t by Shiv Kunal Verma - on the Sino-Indian conflict in 1962; haven’t read it yet, but it’s supposed to be one of the best ones on the conflict

1971: A Global History of the Creation of Bangladesh by Srinath Raghavan - on the creation of Bangladesh; places the history in a Cold War context and includes all stakeholders like the US, China and Russia; has multiple layers to its narrative.The Most Dangerous Place by Srinath Raghavan - on American foreign policy in South Asia right from the earliest times.

Cricket Country by Prashant Kidambi - about how cricket took hold in colonial India and the making of the first all-India cricket team; super excited about this book, I added it to my list too

A Corner of a Foreign Field by Ramchandra Guha - on the growth of cricket in India; takes into account race, caste, and religion in pre- and postcolonial times; looks at how the sport was adapted in local cultures and how it became an expression of resistance

Himalaya: A Human History by Ed Douglas - basically what it says; very thorough and very fresh; about more than India because it takes Himalaya as a unit and so it’s really transnational in its approach

Colonial India

Plassey by Sudeep Chakravarti - a very detailed study of the Battle of Plassey which kicked off the colonial project in India

India’s War: World War II and the Making of Modern South Asia by Srinath Raghavan - on India’s involvement and contribution in World War II

An Era of Darkness by Shashi Tharoor - about the economic impact of the British Empire in India; highly elaborate and detailed work on the economic drain in India during colonisation

Goa Inquisition by A. K. Priolkar - about the Portuguese colonisation of Goa and the subsequent evangelical campaign by the Portuguese crown and the Roman church; very, very, thorough and great if you (like me) know nothing about the whole thing

Hicky’s Bengal Gazette by James Otis - on the development and running of India’s first English newspaper; a fun read because honestly the story of the paper is very dramatic and full of political/colonial gossip; also tells you a lot about the early ideas of free press in colonial India

Sati: Evangelicals, Baptist Missionaries, and the Changing Colonial Discourse by Meenakshi Jain - about the discourse on sati and the need for reform; reviews the idea of the abolition of sati being a progressive act

Castes of Mind by Nicholas Dirks - about the intersection of caste, race, and colonial knowledge and policy

Politics, Sociology, Commentaries

The Indian Trilogy by V. S. Naipaul - a semi-autobiographical work on the kind of civilisation Naipaul sees India to be; very, very honest; paints a picture of postcolonial India over the years. the trilogy includes An Area of Darkness, India: A Wounded Civilization, and India: A Million Mutinies Now. I’ve only read the first one; but I’ve heard and read great things about them all

Republic of Caste by Anand Teltumbde - about caste in post-Independence India; looks at political and policy-related developments and their impact on caste dynamics; sort of subaltern history; it is a little difficult to understand if you don’t already have some amount of knowledge on Indian politics; also a very academic work so not exactly easy to read - I’ve only read parts of it myself

Annihilation of Caste by Dr. B. R. Ambedkar - technically a speech that was never delivered because it was thought to be too explosive; argues that caste is rooted in oppression and for the complete destruction of the caste system; an excellent work, although you do need to know about caste in its religious and political terms. Really just read all of his writing (it’s an entire 14 volume set), they’re excellent and far ahead of their time

The Idea of India by Sunil Khilnani - an analysis of sorts of what pre-colonial and colonial society and the freedom struggle mean for the republic and the kind of nation-building that has happened.

A New India of India: Individual Rights in a Civilisational State by Harsh Madhusudan, Rajeev Mantri - rethinks the “idea of India”; traces cultural and historical legacy in making of modern politics, and explores how individual rights are reconciled with the state’s goals; great thing is that it takes a fresh look at things; perfect to be read after The Idea of India

10 Judgements that Changed India by Zia Mody - recounts ten most important legal cases and court rulings in India; good starting point at understanding how the law works and its development

Republic of Religion by Abhinav Chandrachud - about secularism and religion in India in light of colonial rule, and its implications in postcolonial India

India Unbound by Gurcharan Das - it’s a history from the Independence to 2000 that focuses largely on the political economy and unpacks the kind of growth we’ve seen; it mixes the personal with the political/economic progress and it’s really easy to get into; best when read with his India Grows at Night

People

Kanshiram by Badri Narayan - a biography of Kanshi Ram, who pretty much laid the foundation of modern Dalit political movement in post-independence India; looks into how the movement developed under Kanshi Ram; a useful insight into both the man as well as early Dalit politics in India

Savarkar by Vikram Sampath - first part of a two-part biography (second part isn’t out yet) on V. D. Savarkar, one of India’s first revolutionary freedom fighter; looks at an insane variety of sources and highly detailed; a must read.

History Men by T. C. A. Raghavan - about the friendship of three of colonial India’s first native historians (Sir Jadunath Sarkar, G. S. Sardesai, Raghubir Sinh) and how they collaborated and supported each other in writing Indian history using scientific methods; also looks at their contributions to Indian history in general

Rammohun Roy by Amiya P. Sen - a biography of colonial India’s first social and religious reformers who reinterpreted Hinduism for modern times; very well-written, great for understanding how early reform worked out

Daughters of the Sun by Ira Mukhoty - about women in the Mughal dynasty. note that it only looks at women connected to and part of the royal household, but an interesting read nonetheless. Her other work, Heroines: Powerful Indian Women in Myth and History is a wonderful book on women in history right from the ancient times; also analyses and explains the changing perceptions of women

R. N. Kao: Gentleman Spymaster by Nitin Gokhale - really, really, really interesting book on R. N. Kao and the development of India’s espionage machinery

Art

Indian Art by Partha Mitter - a history, he’s one of the best on Indian art, very useful

The Dance of Shiva by Ananda Coomaraswamy - a collection of essays on Indian artistic tradition in aesthetic and philosophical terms

The Spirit of Indian Painting by B. N. Goswamy - specifically about painting; explores different themes in different regionals tyles; also check other books by Goswamy, he’s kind of a big deal in art history

Indian Painting: the Lesser Known Traditions by Anna Dallapiccola - pretty much what it says; takes into account a ton of styles and traditions that are lumped together ‘folk art’

Cities, Travel etc

The Great Indian Railway Bazaar by Paul Theroux - four-month journey from London to India by trains only; explores themes like colonialism, American imperialism, poverty. One of my favourites

The Epic City by Kushanava Chaudhary - memoir on Kolkata as the author explores and re-discovers the city when he comes back to it after staying in the US for most of his life; a lovely book, delves in the history of Kolkata a little in relation to how the city still feels it, how its people are still negotiating with it, and the kind of future the author sees for Kolkata

Bombay, Meri Jaan by Jerry Pinto & Naresh Fernandes - a collection of essays on Mumbai by a wide collection of people from Naipaul to Khushwant Singh to Manto and Salman Rushdie, compiled by Jerry Pinto; one of my favourites on the city

No Full Stops in India by Mark Tully - writings from when Tully was a journalist in India; commentaries on things he witnesses, also includes a fair amount of personal involvement; explores poverty, postcolonial development, religion and culture in post-independence India

Mumbai Fables by Gyan Prakash - a history of Mumbai city; looks at colonisation, industrial development, the regional politics, architecture and art, as well as the underworld/mafia

Banaras by Diana L. Eck - on Varanasi (Banaras), probably India’s holiest city; tells its history from its conception to now; blends religion, mythology, politics, and history. Also check Eck’s India: A Sacred Geography

The City of Djinns by William Dalrymple - semi-autobiography about living in Delhi; looks at the legacies of independence and partition while thinking about its past

The Book of Indian Journeys by Dom Moraes - it’s an anthology of essays and excerpts from works of a bunch of writers on travelling in India, it’s a favourite when I’m travelling

This is not exhaustive and I will keep updating when I find the time. I’ve tried to keep it diverse (and organised) in its content; hope you find something you like :)

India HAL rehauls Jet Trainer, drops 'Sitara' name for 'Yashas' in an image makeover bid

By N. C. Bipindra Bengaluru (Karnataka): In a bid to shed the ‘failed product’ negative image, India’s state-run Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) has rechristened its Hindustan Jet Trainer-36 (HJT-36) as ‘Yashas‘ after extensive modifications to the aircraft to overcome its ‘spin’ troubles that led to ‘unacceptable’ accidents. On the first day of the five-day AeroIndia 2025 on Feb. 10, 2025,…

This Is A Long One...

Hello Everyone, a LOT has happened over the last four months and I'll try and cover the essentials. I had over 20 pics ready, but tumblr only let's you put ten in a post, so we'll make due with that (but there a lot of ones I would have liked to put in). I'm going to err on the side of kid pics. And I'll try and post more frequently from here on out. Happy moments, bad news tempered by planning, and thoughts about the future below...

55th BIRTHDAY

Wow, what a day! Inga set up an amazing day for me. Friends Bryan and Hillary and their boys brought over some breakfast, then later we had a zoom call with a ton of people/friends/former colleagues from work I hadn't seen in forever. THEN ...I got my hoped-for ukelele!!! (Henry loves to play it too.) Also, I must have had close to 50 birthday cards that she organized and displayed on the wall. And chocolate cake, my favorite. Not so bad to turn 55. How did I get old like that? :)

VISITS

We have had SO many visits I apologize: many of those pics I was forced to leave out, but I wanted to include some. Aunt Kristina flew in from London, the Somashekhars came from Chicago, and Jessica from Upstate NY. She is fighting an arguably rarer and more dangerous cancer than I am. She was also my first call when I got diagnosed as I had no idea how I was going to tell Inga. I've known her over 30 years. There was the Infante family; Tracy and Shawn; Jackie and Warren; Sheila, Tim and Sunil. I'm surely forgetting some people. My apologies, it's not intentional. And several visits scheduled for July already: Kelli and Dave; Amy and Tamara; and my oldest friend Bill D. We feel grateful for all of you!

HENRY GRADUATES PRE-K!

Henry continues to grow up so fast and will enter Kindergarten in September. We got some great school pics and the red pants pics were on his graduation day, but I like the informal ones (before and after the ceremony) better than the official moments. Also, both boys look good in hats, as well as holding a uke.

HEALTH, BAD NEWS AND EFFORTS TOWARD THE FUTURE END

We've been getting bad news the last several months on tumors: they continue to grow ...*incrementally*. We were on the first chemo since Fall of 2021. In January it became clear the tumors were growing. Again: incrementally. Ideally tumors get removed and don't come back. Because mine is a spine-brain/nervous system cancer, great care is taken with surgery not to damage my spine, so I don't get paralyzed. That means they haven't been able to resect all of my tumors completely. Pieces get left behind and we try with chemo to keep those bits dormant. (We have not opted for brain surgery because those lesions are pretty small. I have about three spots in my brain, one at a very dangerous-high-trafficky spot at my brainstem), and the two in my spine have been behaving.

The first chemo did that job for awhile, but then the tumors started growing again in January. New chemo starting in January. Nope, tumors still growing. Incrementally. (Frankly, I'll take incrementally over something growing quickly, which we saw in spring of 2021.) I won't get deep into the emotional roller coaster that puts you on. Not fun with lots of crying --not in front of the kids of course. We've also had some miscommunications with the drs., as well, that made things darker. I admit my typical Pollyanna "I can beat this" even went away for a time. That has been cleared up and we are back on solid ground again. Mostly. Even I need to admit it's very unlikely I will last another five or ten years. Or one or two. ...We just don't know.

All that being said, I WILL continue to fight, and do my exercises. I understand how unlikely it is I will get my legs back, but it's something to strive for. I will start the new chemo in July. Fingers crossed. We have started making videos of me talking about my life and thoughts that will be for the boys (thanks Jesse). I also have a book to fill out asking questions about my life, also for the boys (thanks Tamara). It's slow and yes, emotionally draining (Inga keeps away during the video sessions). Believe me, I feel terrible about leaving family behind. "Grief is the price you pay for love," as I've read and repeat in my head now and then. Yes, I've got tears rolling down my face now. But the boys are playing outside and I will join them soon. No more 'sad dad' stuff for now. My apologies if I'm making you feel bad. Chin up: it won't last. :)

Some good news: I've been able to eat a lot more and am gaining weight again. I'm aiming to break 170 soon. I had bottomed out at 149.9 lbs(!). My normal weight was 185-195 most of the last ten years. I am exercising and feel as strong as I've been in awhile. Everyone notes that the color in my face is really good, and how much (and how dark) my hair has grown back. How long will I last? Nobody knows, but I'm definitely thinking I can be ok into New Years/ 2023. Again, could be a couple months if things go sideways, two years, five I think is not impossible. Nobody knows.

We love you all. Give your family and friends your love. It never hurts to remind them of your appreciation. Until next time, take care. :)
